AMBON - Commander of Kodim 1504/Ambon Colonel Inf. Dominggus C. Soumokil embraced and had a dialogue with religious leaders and community leaders on Haruku Island, Central Maluku Regency to find solutions to resolve conflicts in the region.

"Meeting and dialogue with religious leaders and community leaders can have an impact on reducing the conflict that has occurred on Haruku Island since January 26, 2022," said Dandim Soumokil, in Ambon, as reported by Antara, Saturday, February 19.

The Dandim admitted that he had been on Haruku Island since the past week to conduct social communication with community components in order to find solutions to resolve the social conflict.

He along with the Ambon Police Chief AKBP King Arthur Lumongga and Haruku Island Police Chief Iptu Julkisno Kaisupy traveled from country to country to dialogue with various components of society in order to reconcile the conflicting parties.

According to him, all problems must have a solution. Settlement by means of violence actually has a detrimental effect on many parties.

"Personally and as an institution, we deeply regret the conflict that occurred. Katong (we) fellow basudara (brothers) should not fight because of a problem. Therefore, we are here together to find the best solution so that there will be no more conflict between brothers and sisters, "said the Commander.

He appealed to the entire community not to be easily swayed by rumors or hoaxes that incite incitement.

Regarding shootings by unknown persons in the forests of the Aboru and Hulaliu countries on the island of Haruku and the impact of triggering tensions between the citizens of the two countries, according to Soumokil, this can be resolved through dialogue to reach consensus for mutual peace.

The shooting by an unknown person took place on February 14-15, 2022, causing two Hulaliu residents to die and another resident to suffer gunshot wounds.

Meanwhile, Kapendam XVI/Pattimura Colonel Arh Adi Prayogo said that the social assistance carried out by Dandim 504/Ambon together with the Head of Police was not only intended to relieve tensions in Aboru, but also as a means of mediation.

"We are trying to defuse and find the best solution for the problems that occurred in Haruku together with the police. Currently the conditions in Aboru and Hulaliu are conducive and we are still carrying out security and conflict resolution efforts," said Kapendam.
